This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. (ii) Solicitation VA251-13-Q-0741 is issued as a request for quote (RFQ). (iii) The solicitation document and incorporated provisions and clauses are those in effect through Federal Acquisition Circular through 2005-69. (iv) This is solicitation is unrestricted under NAICS code 541511. The small business size standard for NAICS 541511 is $25.5 million. (v) STATEMENT OF WORK: The Department of Veterans Affairs National Center for Patient Safety (NCPS) has a requirement for a game application (APP) to be deployed that's compatible with Apple iPhone and iPad using open source code following a virtual medical scenario based off a "time-out" simulation developed by NCPS and employed prior to an actual thoracentesis procedure. Desired outcome: The Contractor shall provide a "Time-Out" App that shall take a player through a virtual "time-out" prior to their thoracentesis procedure. During the thoracentesis preparation the player shall take the role of a Medical Resident; other characters in the simulation which they interact with shall include a nurse, nurse aid, and an Attending Physician. Each of the other characters shall respond or react based on actions taken by the player. Occasionally and at random intervals other character shall enter and create a situation which requires engagement, such as interrupting, failing to wash their hands, or similar inappropriate actions. The scenario and virtual environment shall resemble a hospital room including all the props (furniture, oxygen, suction, IV poles and pumps, telephone, and equipment etc.) consistent with the environment. Sounds (alarms, beeps, overhead pages) and lights (steady, blinking, etc.) shall be consistent with the setting. Diagnostic Information such as X-rays, lab reports, or other medical chart information shall be available upon request by the Resident. Specific examples include: touching a view box to illuminate a chest x-ray, and touching a chart to open up the chart for labs and other pertinent information. Since the scenario is to assess the residents "time-out" attentiveness, actual procedures shall not be the dominant part of the scenario though the simulation may end with performance of a thoracentesis. A phone permits contact with Attending Physician, Radiology, Laboratory, etc. The Resident can interact and communicate to nurse, nurse aid, and Attending etc. Built in metrics measure any safety violations (e.g. failure to perform a time-out, mark the site, confirm the consent etc.) and produce a report for educators.
